When it comes to perspectives on teaching and learning, the Web 2.0 has changed everything! Don’t believe it? Back in December 2006, Time Magazine named “you” as the person of the year. The Web 2.0 (also called the Read-Write Web) empowers learners to generate ideas and comments online, rather than simply read or browse someone else’s. In effect, instead of passive consumption-based learning, we are living in a participatory age where learners have a voice and potentially some degree of ownership over their own learning. Here at the start of the twenty-first century, emerging technologies – such as online photo albums, blogs, wikis, podcasts, ebooks, YouTube videos, massive multiplayer online games, simulations, virtual worlds, and wireless and mobile computing – are generating waves of new opportunities in higher education, K-12 schools, corporate training, and other learning environments.
And today’s millennial learner, immersed in an increasingly digital world is seeking richer and more engaging learning experiences. Amid this rising tide of expectations, instructors across educational sectors are exploring and sharing innovative ways to use technology to foster interaction, collaboration, and increased excitement for learning. Unfortunately, as any high school student will tell you, this is far less common than most would hope. In response, it is time to take advantage of the new participatory learning culture where learners build, tinker with, explore, share, and collaborate with others online. It is also time to exploit free and open educational resources, opencourseware, learning portals, and open source software across educational sectors and income levels. This course, therefore, will be a journey into the learning technologies (i.e., nature), pedagogical opportunities (i.e., nurture), and the people, societies, and cultures where this is happening now! Some of you will create and publish a cross-cultural Wikibook on Web 2.0 technology; others will create video blogs, and still others will design YouTube-like videos. We will explore the motivational and educational value of YouTube and other online videos and create a few of our own. Of course, we will also blog on our experiences.
In an age when eyeball-to-eyeball learning is no longer necessary, effective online instructors do not simply teach, but moderate, coach, and assist in the learning process. Today a teacher, trainer, professor, or instructional designer often assumes the role of concierge with a wealth of freely available tools and resources to guide her learners. The mantra in this class is that today, “WE-ALL-LEARN” with Web technology. But designated “instructors” or “teachers” are not always today. In this more open twenty-first century learning world, anyone can learn anything from anyone else at any time. Importantly, strategies discussed and modeled will address learning in all formats—K-12, higher education, corporate, university, military settings, etc. You too can participate.
After the course, students should be able to:
1. Define and use different Web 2.0 technologies;
2. Explain and demonstrate the educational benefits of podcasts, wikis, blogs, virtual worlds, simulations, social networking software, etc.
3. Critique articles related to emerging learning technologies and associated pedagogy with them.
4. Use, recommend, or create online resources and portals in a variety of educational settings.
5. Design an innovative research or evaluation project related to online learning;
6. Successfully submit research, grant, or other proposals related to learning technologies, the Web 2.0, e-learning, or systemic change in education to conferences, foundations, summits, or institutes.
7. Recognize and potentially contact many of the key players and scholars in the field of online learning and Web 2.0 learning technologies.
8. Consult with organizations to evaluate the effectiveness of e-learning courses, programs, and events as well as Web 2.0 technologies.
9. Make recommendations regarding online learning initiatives, programs, and strategies.
10. Obtain a model, guide, or framework for thinking about new technology tools and resources in education. Use this framework for strategic planning reports, retreats, consulting, and other places or situations where a macro lens on learning technology and educational reform is needed.
None!!! The world of learning should be FREE!

Week 15. (December 6) Networks of Personalized Learning (including online language learning)
Tidbits: Besides reading 3-4 assigned articles each week, during the semester I want you to read at least 30 other articles or tidbits from the list of readings below (preferably more than 40) and watch at least 5 videos (typically these are very short online news or magazine articles). On December 6th, you will turn in a 1-3 page summary of the tidbits that you read and indicate what you read from worse to best in order and briefly state why the top 10-20 were your favorites.
Discussions and Small Group Activities Related to the Readings: Each week, we will have discussions or the readings using different types of instructional activities (debates, role play, best 3 questions, article quotes, etc.). You will also lead and moderate such activities at least once during the semester. You may be asked to bring a set of questions based on one or more articles to class. Perhaps a few times during the semester this discussion will extend to Oncourse. Starter discussion posts have been made for each week (Note: posting to Oncourse forums is optional unless specifically referred to by the instructor for a particular week).
Cool Resource Provider: One or two times week during the semester, you must bring one educational YouTube video or other online learning resource related to the topic of that week to show in class for 5-10 minutes in your role as the “cool resource provider.” The moderator will also post these resources to Oncourse in the appropriate discussion thread called “Cool Resources.” Such resources might come from YouTube, TeacherTube, CNN News and Videos, BBC News and Video, Fora TV, Academic Earth, or some similar video sharing site (see my portal of shared online video sites: http://www.trainingshare.com/resources/Summary_of_Ways_to_Use_Shared_Online_Video.htm). Your cool resources might also include animations, simulations, technical reports, white papers, e-books, Web portals, or other technology tools. Discussion in this thread is voluntary or optional unless directed by the instructor as required for a particular week.
Class Attendance: In terms of class attendance, it is your responsibility to come to class and experience the unique activities that will be incorporated into each week. A combination of readings, verbal and written reactions to ideas, observing demonstration tools or videos, and hands-on activities will be critical to your growth as a class. Some of it will be quantitatively graded and some of it will be qualitatively graded. Keep in mind that I want to hear from you! Participation is encouraged at all times.
Instead of a large class discussion forum, in this option, you would create a Weblog (i.e., a blog) to reflect on your personal article readings and ideas related to class. A minimum of 15 posts (30 points). You might create a Blog using Pitas.com, Blogger.com, Movable Type, LiveJournal, Diaryland, Free-Conversant, WordPress, or some other blogging tool. A 2-4 page single-spaced reflection paper on this activity is due December 6th with your blog postings attached (40 points).
Instead of blogging, you could create a weekly 4-8 minute reflection in YouTube of your learning in this class. In that reflection, you would detail what you learned and concepts, research, or ideas that interested you. A 2-4 page single-spaced reflection paper on this activity is due December 6th with a summary page of links to your videos (40 points).
Instead of blogging or video reflections, you could create a weekly 5-10 minute podcast reflection of your learning in this class. In that reflection, you would detail what you learned and concepts, research, or ideas that interested you. A 2-4 page single-spaced reflection paper on this activity is due December 6th along with a summary page of links to your videos (40 points).
Critical Friends: You will be assigned a critical friend to give feedback to on their postings each week. You are asked to give a minimum of 15 feedback posts (30 points or 2 points per post). Keep in mind that students should avoid doing all their blog posting or video or podcast productions at the end of the semester. If you do that, your critical friend partner cannot give you any feedback. Students tend to get frustrated and complain when this happens so please be considerate of your partner.
Sample Grading Criteria (30%--60 Points; 10 points each):
1. Relevancy to class: meaningful examples, relationships drawn, interlinkages, connecting weekly ideas.
2. Insightful/reflective: interesting reflections, self-awareness & learning displayed, coherent, informative.
3. Creative/Design: cool blog, podcast or video created, originality, design, uniqueness, interesting.
4. Completeness: thorough comments, detailed reflection, fulfills assignment (or quality video).
5. Learning Depth/Growth: takes thoughts along to new heights, exploration, breadth & depth, growth.
6. Diversity: some variety in ideas, some breadth to exploration, can see other perspectives, flexible.
In this option, you are to find 15-30 articles related to your area of interest and summarize them into mini1-2 paragraph abstracts and notes. Turn in a 3-4 page single-spaced reflection paper on the direction of your project and your learning to date. Why is the topic important and interesting? You might use this work in your final project.
In this option, I want you to interview at least one instructor who is teaching or has taught online courses, workshops, or events as well as a student who has taken such a course. Or, interview an instructor who has used Web 2.0 technologies in teaching and a student who has used Web 2.0 technologies in learning. Interviewees might come from corporate, K-12, military, government, or higher education settings. Interviews can be live (face-to-face), via phone or videoconferencing, or conducted through email. You might also perform case studies, focus group sessions, or pilot observations of instructors or learners using online learning tools in a school, workplace, or informal learning setting. You are to document their life as a Web 2.0 user or online participant (timeframe up to you). In effect, I want you to gather their life histories as a technology learner or instructor and compare these to their online experiences. Then I want you to create a visual representation that compares or relates your stories from both the online instructors and students. Please include interview questions in an appendix. In your report, I want you to reflect on what you learned about e-learning from this assignment. How might you put some of their ideas to use in training programs or in your own teaching? Have these interviews opened your eyes? What might you have done differently? Your reflection paper should be 5-7 single-spaced pages (plus any visuals including tables, charts, figures, models, etc.).
Option 1 and 2 Grading (10 pts for each of the following dimensions)
1. Relevance (clarity, content related to class, organized, facts, data, relevant, style)
2. Resources, Effort, & Digging (citations/refs, linkages to class concepts, extensive)
3. Completeness & Coherence (depth, clear, complete, practical, detailed, important, logical)
4. Creativity and Richness of Ideas (richness of information, elaboration, originality, unique)
5. Knowledge of Topic (learning breadth & depth, growth, displays understanding of topic)
Sometime people struggle to make sense of all the changes in learning technologies. They need models and frameworks that simplify and explain things. In this option, I want you to create a visual that summarizes some key aspect of your learning in this course or that uniquely organizes some of the information. This visual representation might be in the form of a timeline, model, framework, acronym, figure, diagram, a comparative flowchart, taxonomy, a Venn diagram, or a comparison and contrast table or matrix. Include a 4-5 page single-spaced reflection paper with this visual.
Option 3 Grading (10 pts for each of the following dimensions)
1. Relevance (clarity, content related to class, organized, facts, data, relevant, style)
2. Resources, Effort, & Digging (citations/refs, linkages to class concepts, extensive)
3. Completeness & Coherence (depth, clear, complete, practical, detailed, important, logical)
4. Creativity and Richness of Ideas (richness of information, elaboration, originality, unique synthesis)
5. Visual Display (creative design, integrative, learning breadth & depth, growth, displays understanding of topic)
Find and evaluate a strategic plan of a company, university, non-profit organization, school, state, province, country, or region related to the Web 2.0 or e-learning and critique it. For instance, you might pick the state or country where you were born or perhaps where you plan to live after graduation. You might find the strategic plan online or request a hardcopy version. I want you to not simply read and critique the report but to also interview someone who created it or is/was affected by that report. You might discuss and critique the online learning technologies highlighted, proposed pedagogical plans, intended training methods, targeted skills or competencies, or evaluation methods detailed. You might visit the institution or organization or write someone an email. What might this organization do differently in planning for e-learning or using the Web 2.0? What are its competitors doing, for instance? Has there been an update? You are encouraged to work in teams on this report. When done, you will present an overview of the report to the class. Testimonials, graphs and trends of indicated growth, comparisons, and other data or handouts are welcome. You are also encouraged to directly contact the organization that developed the report or plan and receive additional product information (e.g., CDs, brochures, white papers, technical reports, product comparison sheets, videotapes, company annual report, customer testimonies, data sheets, Web site information, etc.). Your critique should be 4-6 single-spaced pages (excluding appendices).
Option 4 Grading (10 pts for each of the following dimensions)
1. Review of Plan or Document (clarity, related to class, organized, facts, data, relevant, style)
2. Relevant Resources and Digging (citations/refs, linkages to class concepts, extensive)
3. Soundness of Critique (depth, clear, complete, practical, detailed, important, coherence)
4. Creativity and Richness of Ideas (richness of information, elaboration, originality, unique)
5. Knowledge of Topic (learning breadth & depth, growth, displays understanding of topic)
In this option, you help with a Wikibook related to emerging technologies. Two years ago, students from five universities designed a wikibook on “The Web 2.0 and Emerging Learning Technologies” (The WELT); see http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Web_2.0_and_Emerging_Learning_Technologies. If you write a unique chapter for the WELT, it should be a minimum of 2,000 words. A 2-3 page reflection paper on what you learned from this wikibook activity is due November 29th (70 points). Attached to your reflection paper will be documentation of what you contributed to the wikibook, including your chapter (with highlights or special notations of your contribution), highlights to the chapters worked on, and perhaps even print outs of the wikibook chapter editing history.
Wikibook Grading (50 Total Points or 10 pts each dimension):
1. Chapter and reflection paper relevance: Contribution is meaningful to class, we learn from it
2. Chapter and reflection paper coherence: flow, well organized, good layout, enjoyable to read
3. Chapter and reflection paper completeness: Sufficient coverage of info, extends topic and class
4. Overall chapter creativity: Original and distinctive ideas, insightful points, something unique in it such as a figure, model, graph, timeline, comparison chart, acronym, quote or set of quotes, etc.
5. Overall reflection paper insightfulness, depth of thought, flow, informational content, etc.
So you want to be cool? You want to be creative? In this option, you are to create a shared online video (e.g., YouTube) related to this class. You cannot be the only person in it. What does the Web 2.0 and participatory learning mean to you? Alternatively, you can design a YouTube video for someone else. You should post this video of at least 5 minutes in length by November 29. You will turn in a 2-3 page single-spaced summary reflection of your design. Your video and paper will be graded for: (1) insightfulness, creativity, and originality; (2) design and visual effects; (3) coherence and logical sequence; (4) completeness; (5) relevance of content.
I like options and challenges and I bet you do too! Instead of a regular old blog, in this option, you might experiment with a video blog. When done, I want you to write a paper wherein you reflect on why you selected your particular blog topic and associated videos. You might discuss the benefits of video plus text. Also comment on any feedback you have received. You might mention what you might do differently and where your efforts might be headed. Do you think that your topic was effective? Why or why not? You will turn in a 2-3 page single-spaced summary reflection of your design by November 29. Your blogging activities and associated reflection paper will be graded for: (1) insightfulness, creativity, and originality; (2) design and organization; (3) coherence and logical sequence; (4) completeness; (5) relevance of content.
In this option, you are to create an educational application, activity, or use within Second Life. Why did you create this activity? What is the purpose and potential? Who is the audience? How does it relate to this class? You will turn in a 2-3 page single-spaced summary reflection of your design by November 29. Your Second Life design and paper will be graded for: (1) insightfulness, creativity, and originality; (2) design and visual effects; (3) coherence and logical sequence; (4) completeness; (5) relevance of content.
In this option, you are to create at least 2 podcasts related to topics from this class of at least 8 minutes in length. I prefer that you create a series of podcasts on a theme or a podcast show. In addition, you cannot be the only person in the podcasts. The topic or theme only needs to be related to this class. Be creative and unique. When done, I want you to write a paper wherein you reflect on why you selected that topic. Also comment on any feedback you have received. You might mention what you might do differently and where your efforts might be headed. Do you think that your topic was effective? Why or why not? What might you do differently if you were to do it over? You will turn in a 1-2 page single-spaced summary reflection of your design by November 29. Your podcast show and paper will be graded for: (1) insightfulness, creativity, and originality; (2) design and visual effects; (3) coherence and logical sequence; (4) completeness; (5) relevance of content.
You might design your own final project or combine some of these together into something truly unique (i.e., a mash-up). Or you might volunteer to create a usable class product (e.g., an online glossary, a Web site for the class, a database of articles on different class themes, organize a class mini-conference or real conference symposium, review a key journal in the field for major themes or trends and share that research with the class, etc.) or you might demonstrate a Web 2.0 or e-learning tool to the class. Such a tool may have relevance in K-12, military, corporate, or higher education settings or perhaps in more informal settings such as a museum, zoo, or computer club. See the instructor about the possibilities of demonstrating a particularly interesting e-learning tool you have found. You might have other task option preferences. Or you might trade a task for a major problem-based learning project related to this class with a company, organization, or institution. You make the contact and find out what needs to be resolved and then get it approved by the instructor. It might be a Web 2.0 or distance learning evaluation project. It might involve the design of e-learning tools and resources. It might entail the creation of a strategic plan, white paper, or vision statement. Whatever the problem or task, it must be an authentic activity and turned in by November 29th. You will present the final project at the end of the semester. The grading scheme will be project specific.
Class Presentations of Final Projects: Everyone will present their final projects on November 29th for 10-15 minutes each.
Final Project Examples (from R685 Spring 2010):
You can skip all the above readings and, instead, read one chapter per week from both volumes of my most recent book, “The World is Open” and “The World is More Open” as well as the book prequel and postscript (see the World is Open book website: http://worldisopen.com/). If interested, just ask me for a copy. If you want to alternate between the book and the weekly articles, that is fine too; just let me know.
